World Of Warcraft Players Waiting for Cataclysm

By Jason Freeman on Oct 15, 2010

Avid followers of the online game World of Warcraft had to take a break from playing the popular game, after Blizzard Entertainment announced that maintenance works are necessary for the massively multiplayer online role-playing game.

The maintenance works for the United States took place Tuesday keeping US servers down for almost 12 hours. The EU servers also had to undergo maintenance works Wednesday. The maintenance works spelled good news for WOW fans since it was needed to pave the way for the Blizzard update of WoW to patch 4.0.1.

The patch 4.01 is one of the final patches necessary to pave the way for the complete overhaul and expansion of the World of Warcraft. Players are looking forward to the launch of Cataclysm on December 7, which is expected to be less overwhelming thanks to the final patch.

Despite the patch, there will be no changes in the existing world and quests until the actual Cataclysmic event. Blizzard needs up to three pre-expansion events work through prior to the launch of Cataclysm. Players should not also expect to see worgens or goblins or even old world flying since these two races will be bared after the Cataclysm expansion only. This should keep the WOW players pretty grounded before the Cataclysmic event.

However, the new additions will be a treat to the players including the class changes, the 31-point talent trees, the new graphic updates and the new interface designs.
